If you have a 500, and it is a 12 gauge, it is a 500A. The "A" designates it as a 12ga. A 500B is a 16ga, a C is a 20ga, and an E is a .410.
There is no difference. A 500 is a basic Mossy 500 receiver shotgun. Unless the gauge is stated, it's assumed it's a 12. The 500A is simply stating it as a "12 gauge" 500 in its name. The Mossy 500A is a 12 gauge model 500, the 500B is a 16 gauge model 500, the 500C is a 20 gauge etc. There was no 28 gauge so there is no 500D, contrary to many sources, so the next one was the .410 called the 500E. A 12 gauge model 500 and a 500A are the same gun.
The model 500 Mossberg is a particular style introduced in 1961 by O.F.Mossberg & Sons. It has undergone many style changes over the years, but 500A, B, C, or D are not style changes. A model 500A is the 12 gauge version of the model 500. 500B is 16 gauge. 500C is 20 gauge and 500D is .410 (which is actually a caliber rather than a gauge.
Yes, it is. The 600AT was simply sold under the New Haven name instead of the Mossberg brand. It's a Mossberg 500A (12 gauge) intended for targets and hunting (long barrel and great wood). All Mossberg 500 parts fit it.

I don't know why someone would completely not answer you. You asked about the 600ct correct? So to know about the AT really isn't much use to you. Yes it is the same as the Mossberg 500A!!!!! It was a model created for a store brand to identify which chain was selling the item. All parts and fubctions and shape and size is identical to the 500A. The only difference is that it had a 1/2" shorter barrel than the 500A due to the full chokeAnswerThe Mossberg (New Haven) 600 AT is essentially the same as the Mossberg 500. The differences are the 500 has a firing pin spring, and the action bars on the 600 can only be removed by removing the magazine tube. AnswerThe Mossberg 600 AT is the same as the 500 with two differences. The 500 has a firing pin spring, and the action bars on the 600 can only be removed by removing the magazine tube.
western field/mossberg interchangabilityYes, You can interchange the mossberg 500a barrels with Your Western FieldM550abd. I want to improve the question. can interchange be accomplished in both westernfield 550abd and 550ad
The "A" reference in Singer's model numbers pertain to the location of manufacture. For most models, A = Anderson, South Carolina USA. For the 500 machine most were made in Elizabethport, NJ including the "A's" The only difference between a 500 and 500A or 400 and 400A or 301 and 301A, etc. is that the "A" denotes manufacturing plant, whether Anderson, SC or elsewhere.
Normally between $300 - $500, unaccessorised, and depending on specifics.
500a=123 where a is the percent a = 123/500 a = .246 24.6%
The Mossberg 500 Stock is the stock for the Mossberg 500 shotgun. The stock would allow you to get a better grip on the shotgun and absorb some recoil from firing the shotgun.
Not likely. The 930 is a gas operated semi-automtic. The 500 is a pump.
